In Vitebsk district cost of water services three times the average regional level, reported in the State Control Committee of the Vitebsk region.

Regional Commission for the Study of problematic issues in the housing and communal services in the region (established in order to fulfill the orders of the head of state) notes that in some localities the loss of water in the networks constitute more than 90 %. The main reason - wear chains, as well as failure to identify accidents and elimination of water leaks.

"In the district operated 110 artesian wells. Their installed capacity of 45 thousand cubic meters per day, while connected - only 8 % of the set. Thus in localities connected capacity is less than 1%. Fokino In settlements Pyshnyaki night and rises less than 5 cubic meters and the cost of electricity consumed artesian well in Fokino for 2013 amounted to Br19, 3 million,"- noted in the SCC.

One reason for the high cost of water services have become a great loss of water networks UP Utilities " Vitraykomhoz " due to their deterioration. Thus, 95.8 km of water supply ( 41.2 % of the total network length ) have 100% wear, 37.2 km of networks (16%) - more than 70% wear. In the 27 settlements in which the centralized water supply, water supply fully depreciated. As a result, in some localities the loss is more than 90% of the water lifted.

Experts note that in addition to objective reasons are observed such as the untimely detection and emergency response. So, in the village Hodorino Vitebsk region, despite a significant increase water flow was not timely (over 5 months) identified and corrected leak water. Only in October- December 2013 amounted to excessive loss of water more than 1.2 thousand cubic meters, which took on rise 5.1 MW of electricity. " At the same time none of the experts drew attention to the fact that at the end of last year, raised water from an artesian well of the settlement increased 30 times, and excessive losses of electricity - 65 times ", - stressed in the SCC.

The high cost of water supply due to the fact that the contracts are not working to full coverage. In Vitebsk region is 37 localities, which is serviced by up to 13 personal accounts, while the number of residents in more than a few times. So, in the village all decorated Bright 13 personal accounts for the provision of water services, while 43 people actually live.

The results of this work with specific proposals are summarized and sent to the address of the Republican committee. Now being tested economic activity Housing and Communal Services " Vitraykomhoz ", the results of which will assess the actions of officers guilty of the above facts, and appropriate sanctions on those responsible.
